Allure Annual Beauty Awards

The Time is here ladies, the latest issue of ALLURE Magazine has there annual beauty awards all organized in the what I call "Beauty Bible". I always like to try a few products that aren't on there list with my friends so here is MY PERSONAL stamp of approval. These products are a fantastic price, so you don't break the bank if you try them.

Mascara: We Chose Cover girl's Basic Mascara with a curved brush; not only does it left and separate, if you are scared of eyelash curlers you can push the brush under your lashes and wiggle up with some force and it will give them a slight curve. $4.00 at most drugstore's

Wet N- Wild has the BEST tinted moisturizer I've ever tried on. My best friend Christian has a moisturizer from Clinique and when I gave her both but didn't tell her which was which, she actually picked this one. $2.00 at Walmart!

I Know, I know; Paris Hilton's perfume? Yes it is true, we went to Dillards and sample everyone we could and wear some came in close second, the Can Can was a fan favorite. Its more of a fun winter BBQ smell but its so fruity and inviting, plus we found that Wal*Mart and Burlington Coat Factory sells mini bottle for $9 bucks. Are Close second was DKNY Apple (For the Fall) Princess by Vera Wang and Amor Amor because it reminded us of the high school scent of the 00's Lucky, but more grown up.

That's all for now, but I'll be posting my picks for Lip Color, Nail Color and Hair Care as soon as we narrow it down more. WHAT DO YOU LOVE? E-mail it to me xoxo_meglove@yahoo.com

Tights are in the air

Anyone who remember wearing a dress in the 80's or 90's they never were complete without those white tights. Well guess what, fashion evolves and so has the tight. I love this season's tight selection. They are all cut unique and look great under dresses. Add some boots, or in a couple of these tights cases, peep toe shoes. Check them out and send me some pics.

TREND ALERT!

Okay here is the new big trend in Hollywood and I like it. I actually was digging through my jewelry box from when I was 16 and found my big, out there butterfly and rose rings. So I guess its true, fashion always comes back around. So here is the skivvy on the finger trend. The bigger the better is the motto said Rhianna who wore a snake type ring to TRL that covered her ring and pinkie finger. Trust me its a cheap easy fad all of us can follow and its not that bad either, it adds some flavor. Here are some great deals I found.

Pearl Cluster from Wetseal.com $5.00

Black Stone from Windsorfashions.com $6.00

Zebra Heart from Agacistores.com $4.50

Girls are Fans Too!

I had four e-mails asking me about women's fashion in the NFL teams. Guess what, it is out there and its easier than you think. NFLshop.com has all the teams and the tops that I found are by 5Th and Ocean, I have a baseball one, so I know it fits and doesn't shrink. So here you go girls. Were fans too!

1st readers question:

Hi Meg Love,

Thanks for the great blog, I love it. I was wondering how can I leopard print (my favorite) in my work life. I have to keep everything pretty neutral at work. Any ideas?

Okay Gia, well I don't think a work place should ever dampen your favorite style, you just have to do it in a way that is easy to remove if it causes a problem and isn't a "HI, I"M LEOPARD PRINT". Try a cute headband in leopard print, it is subtle yet give a pop of flavor. You could also use a leopard print wallet or a great ballet flat. Keep it in the accessories for work and no one should have a problem. Here are a couple of great finds for you!!

The Mock Neck?

Remember when you were ten and your mom used to put you in the stretchy cotton turtleneck, with no doubt a reindeer print or something as ridiculous. Well I do, and I'm still scarred to this day. So when I went shopping over Labor Day weekend and found the "new" turtleneck, also referred to as The Mock Neck. I humored the garment and tried it on, surprisingly, fun, fashionable and affordable. They also made them with a cute tie to the side element. So if you think it might not be for you, take my advice, it might be.

This mock neck above is from windsorfashion.com for 29.90

Big Bags...Always a staple

Someone once asked me why I carry a bag that is ten times the size of what I carry inside of it; my response? Simple, I love the way it looks. Bags that are a little bigger tend to give me a sense of power, besides have you ever tried to cut someone in line when her purse was sticking out. I didn't think so. Anyways my point being in this post, no matter what season it is big bags are here to stay. Classic colors are back for the fall and colors that are rich and deep in color. My favorite must have bag? 17.95 at HeavenlyCouture.com!!

Send me pics of your favorite bags xoxo_meglove@yahoo.com
